IQ Motion Control Soon to Release High-Efficiency Drone Motors

IQ Motion Control (formerly IQinetics) has been hard at work since we last checked in with them, refining and preparing their high-efficiency drone motors for prime time. The IQ Drone Module is an integrated motor and controller that uses a position sensor and advanced control algorithms to optimize motor performance. This brings professional-grade motor control to consumer and enterprise drones. IQ motors will launch in January 2018 on CrowdSupply.

How It Works

By adding a position sensor to their motors and writing advanced calibration and control algorithms, IQ is able to optimize motor performance and give users the utmost control over their vehicles.
